  1. Oh it's dangerous... if you switch with a marksheet open, the every 30s auto-save on the marksheet will store the resultant data against anyone at the school you switched to who has a matching student ID (for instance). If PersonID references were entirely unique across your MAT it would be fine, but they're not, they're only unique per school, so yes - whenever you switch, if you don't refresh every BC tab and don't realise it's VERY easy to overwrite where IDs align. I have a LOT of browsers installed along with all the available dev / beta channels for each etc to give me plenty of potentially simultaneous options for multiple-schools at once.
  2. Talk to your Customer Success Manager... we have a training instance provided by them, BUT you have to maintain it on an ongoing basis yourself (roll it over, give it new pupils, timetable etc etc). Whether they still offer this to newer customers, not sure.

  4. We're (still) using it fine with O365 SMTP configured old-fashioned stylee manually with Basic auth, rather than the newer "proper" intergration. **shrug**
  5. OK - so, if you head to Bromcom QuickReports, domain to Staff Absences > add all fields and take it out to excel... what do the start and end times there show for the impacted records?
  6. Vision odata’s been tanked for days, and part of the solution has seen data field types switch from datetime to datetimezone on the feed. Fairly sure all this is due to underlying changes being put in place for v2 rollout on both PartnerAPI and Vision oData endpoints, and shenanigans have occurred under the hood. Wouldn’t surprise me if all these things are related given this has taken place in the midst of various attempted fixes for the Vision outage approaching v2’s planned launch on 29th. Whether all of this has impacted the thirdyparty user soap api is anyone’s guess.
  7. I've been wanting parity across the feeds for years. Back when we first switched in 2018, I developed everything based on CloudMIS feeds, (incorrectly) assuming whatever I designed for CloudMIS we could then just swap the oData endpoint out for Vision and it'd then work for bringing in multi-school/multi-year data (because there was no documentation around any of this and I hadn't yet been given access to the Vision feed). Ended up having to rewrite months of work due to this incorrect assumption. Table names, structures within those tables, and even the data-type of individual fields vary from feed to feed.
  8. Yes, you can make a quickreport that takes out whatever data domain, and patch that in via live feed (get data > from web > paste livefeed URL for quickreport, accessible from reports list > select report > actions > livefeed). For Behaviour events... set QuickReport Data domain dropdown at top middle to "Behaviour Event Records", then for auto-refreshing direct from the livefeedURL, tick the "All Date Intervals & Filters" button, set the Date Interval on the domain to "Show All". Add whatever needed from the field list. The output of that is the equivalent of what we get from Vision - all BehaviourEventRecords recorded in the system for as long as you've been using the system. For exporting CSV archives for a specific timeperiod, set the Date Interval to the specific date range, export, and bring the CSV in from a Sharepoint repo. Don't use the "runtime" switch on anything that you'll be consuming direct via livefeed - you can't provide parameters on a livefeed request.
  9. Roles & Permissions > Reporting > oData Admin Feed. That's about it. You can either access the feed in it's entirety, or you can't access the feed (as far as I'm aware). Without that ticked, users will get: With it ticked, they'll get everything.
  10. "Old" Method is still working absolutely fine for us... we've never bothered changing to oAuth as last we tried it had to be linked up using a Tenancy Admin account, with no option to change the identity it then sent as.
  11. They did. Recording is on Vimeo… COO section: 3m 26s to... CTO section: 7m 38s to... CIO section: 16m01s to end
  12. You'd define that on your date table over in PowerBI... then the date of the attendance mark would determine wk1 or 2 from your attendance table's relationship with the date table.
  13. This has been working for us for 8 years...
  14. Agreed on all points, and likewise (well, my boss has) ^^^ (except we've been at it with them for 8 years, which means we started with old-oldUI. NewUI for us will be the third UI overhaul staff will have had to get to grips with, hence we're still on the middle-ground OldUI)
  15. We use automated events (something along lines of screenshot below scheduled to run at an appropriate time after close of your p5 registers) to deal with this so no-one needs to do the actual sanctioning - system takes care of it, and staff have eyes on it via PowerBI report that refreshes itself.
